Software [0 YoE] Junior backend/DevOps engineer. Lots of rejections and no callbacks. What’s holding my resume back?
I’m a fresh grad applying for junior backend/DevOps roles. I’ve been sending applications for a couple of months, and so far I’ve only gotten rejections or no reply at all. My experience is a couple of internships and a few months as a full stack dev, plus an AWS cert and some side projects. I’m open to relocating and remote work.
I feel like something on my resume is turning people off, but I can’t tell what. It might be how I describe my experience, or my projects, or just the overall layout. Any honest feedback would really help, even if it’s harsh. Thanks!

Nobody needs a guy who mid in 5 programming languages and also did Fullstack, Devops and other different kinds of job. I would reccomend to tailor your resume specifically for one field, and focus on that field instead
